Hey, I am Mckendy, and I like music. I spend my weekends listening to music and discovering different genres. I like animals, especially my cat, and I love to learn about animals such as birds and small mammals. I am also a reader, with a particular fondness for action and fantasy. My favorite book is Stein's Gate. This is more science fiction than fantasy, but I enjoy it because I have also watched a show about it that involves time travel, which is interesting, and I enjoy jogging and running in my free time. I like to eat lots of food from various places. I would like to eat more great foods from places I visit in the future. I dislike caramel, especially in snacks like chocolate and in food overall. I hate bugs; they are disgusting and freak me out. I would panic if I saw one. I like to play games; one of my favorites is Roblox. Travel is one of my biggest goals to achieve. I have not traveled yet, but I am researching places that would seem fun to go. One of these places is
